This was my first art exhibit in a whole room and I wanted to make something big! At the time, Kinkos (now FedEx copy) had this giant black and white plotter that allowed me to print out really big stuff for cheap. I printed out some larger collage pieces and did a cut paper collage directly on the wall. It was a really good way to make something big when I had limited resources.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><div class=\"et_pb_text_2 et_pb_text et_pb_bg_layout_light et_pb_module et_block_module preset--module--divi-text--8be4a2bd-a327-4020-93ec-c87f7cf3dd8e\"><div class=\"et_pb_text_inner\"><p>I found a higher-res CD of retro stock photos which allowed me to make better-quality collages. I made a ton for the show (I think 25) spray mounted them on foam core and hung them on the wall. I was still exploring concepts like overconsumption, capitalism and political greed as in my earlier collages, but because I had better images I was able to make something a little bit more polished.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><div class=\"et_pb_module et_d4_element dip_animated_gallery dip_animated_gallery_0\">\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"et_pb_module_inner\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"dip-module dip-module-parent dip-animated-gallery dip-ag-parent\">\r\n\t\t\t\t<div  class=\"dip-ag-wrap anm-1 dip-gallery-on\">\r\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"et_pb_module et_d4_element dip_animated_gallery_child dip_animated_gallery_child_0\">\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"et_pb_module_inner\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"dip-module dip-module-child dip-ag-child\">\r\n                <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/shanthony.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/29688_1302620561622_1113713401_30719115_3736597_n.jpg\" alt=\"\" data-caption=\"\" data-lightbox=\"https:\/\/shanthony.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/29688_1302620561622_1113713401_30719115_3736597_n.jpg\">\r\n            <\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div><div class=\"et_pb_module et_d4_element dip_animated_gallery_child dip_animated_gallery_child_1\">\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"et_pb_module_inner\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"dip-module dip-module-child dip-ag-child\">\r\n                <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/shanthony.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/29688_1302609081335_1113713401_30719085_8305577_n.jpg\" alt=\"\" data-caption=\"\" data-lightbox=\"https:\/\/shanthony.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/29688_1302609081335_1113713401_30719085_8305577_n.jpg\">\r\n            <\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div><div class=\"et_pb_module et_d4_element dip_animated_gallery_child dip_animated_gallery_child_2\">\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"et_pb_module_inner\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"dip-module dip-module-child dip-ag-child\">\r\n                <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/shanthony.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/29688_1302619921606_1113713401_30719101_239768_n.jpg\" alt=\"\" data-caption=\"\" data-lightbox=\"https:\/\/shanthony.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/29688_1302619921606_1113713401_30719101_239768_n.jpg\">\r\n            <\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\r\n            <\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":2184,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_et_pb_use_builder":"on","_et_pb_old_content":"<!-- wp:divi\/placeholder \/-->","_et_gb_content_width":"1080","footnotes":""},"categories":[15],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1330","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-40-days-of-art"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/shanthony.com\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1330","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/shanthony.com\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/shanthony.com\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/shanthony.com\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/shanthony.com\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1330"}],"version-history":[{"count":6,"href":"https:\/\/shanthony.com\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1330\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":2707,"href":"https:\/\/shanthony.com\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1330\/revisions\/2707"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/shanthony.com\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2184"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/shanthony.com\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1330"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/shanthony.com\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1330"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/shanthony.com\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1330"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
